Assistant Restaurant General Manager
Welcome to KFC. Home of the real ones.
At KFC, we pride ourselves on serving the world’s best chicken. Since 1939, when our Colonel first dreamed of finger lickin’ good chicken, we’ve been bringing joy to over 1000 communities across the UK and Ireland. Our journey started in Kentucky, and we continue to embody the grit, pride, and iconic reputation that began all those years ago.
We’re looking for individuals who are original, individual, and fresh. Here, we come to work as our true selves, building a community while serving our original recipe chicken. In our environment, ambition grows, careers flourish, and potential knows no bounds. Our doors are open, and they can lead you anywhere.
If you join our team, we ask just one thing: be yourself. Because that’s what makes us, us.
About the Role
As an Assistant Restaurant General Manager, you will support the team, take charge of day-to-day operations, and help us hit our performance goals. Your mission? Ensure your team doesn’t just meet expectations but crushes them. You’ll own the operations, atmosphere, and guest experience, creating a welcoming environment for both guests and team members.
What Will You Spend Your Time Doing?
* Support Like a Leader: Assist in taking ownership of the restaurant — drive performance, hit goals, and keep the vibe alive.
* Help Build a Dream Team: Train, coach, and motivate your crew to not only meet standards but exceed them.
* Hit Those Targets: Own your KPIs, support the team, and ensure every shift delivers what’s expected.
* Keep Everything Running Smooth: Stay on top of the admin — from rosters to stock, ensuring the behind-the-scenes work is solid.
* Make Every Guest Feel Special: Turn first-timers into regulars with memorable experiences that keep them coming back.
What We’d Love From You:
* You Lead by Example: You’ve managed teams before and know how to bring out the best in others.
* You Understand People: You support building strong teams, handle tough conversations, and ensure everyone feels valued.
* You Keep Things Running: You help ensure smooth operations — efficient, clean, compliant — even when things get hectic.
Keeping It Real
At KFC, we don’t hire staff — we hire people. People with real lives and aspirations, building real careers. Each of us has something special to add to the mix we call work, and we encourage you to share your perspective.
We welcome everyone — regardless of background or future aspirations. We’ll look out for you because you’re one of us, not just because you work for us. We invest in your potential because it’s what we’ve always done. Most importantly, we give you the freedom to be you, wherever (and whoever) you happen to be.
What’s in It for You:
We offer benefits that make your life a little easier because we know the juggle is real:
* Pay Rate: £30,000 - £35,000
* Quarterly BONUS: Rewarding your hustle
* Extra Holiday: More time to recharge
* Life Assurance: We’ve got you covered
* Free Chicken & Chips: Every shift!
